Notes:

Stuart Devlin's reverse design depicts a feathertail glider, a pigmy possum, which grows to about 15cm in length. The animal is known colloquially as the 'flying mouse'. The design shows the figure 1, 7mm high, placed to the left of the animal's head with the designer's initials, SD, between the animal's right claw and the tip of its tail.

Mint Rolls contain 50 coins. In 1967 and 1968, the rolls were wrapped by the Reserve Bank. In the other years, the Royal Australian Mint wrapped the coins. In later years, strong plastic bags containing $25 (2,500 coins) were more commonly used for transport.
